Some years ago Antonia Cantero , 93 , has ceased to be aware of what happens around them . His daughter, Maribel Taravilla , 62 , is practically his only connection to the world . It tells you when to eat, when to get up and take the baton for a little walk around the house , how long drink. But it was not suffering from dementia which led to the emergency hospital in La Paz , in Madrid , on Monday of last week , but a foot injury . She slept that night in a box with a dozen other patients in a windowless room . The next day , her daughter asked when would rise to the plant. He asked further, Wednesday, Thursday , Friday ... The patient did not leave the box until Saturday afternoon. " I was told that there were no beds ," recalls daughter.
Cantero Antonia slept five nights in a emergency room , despite having no other bed - chairs - , is not ready for a patient to spend more than 48 hours on it. When this newspaper visited on Saturday morning , is serving his sixth day there. His daughter, desperate for his nonagenarian mother bedridden many days , did not know where to turn. The Patient Care claims had no effect . " Wine Walk, and I fear that will come out of here in a wheelchair ," said Taravilla . "I have asked if they can raise to move or walk , but they can not tell me that there is no room ."
The hall, designed for 11 beds, had on Saturday at least two more added in the middle of the room . Several workers confirmed that has grown to more than double. Heat and atmosphere charged by poor ventilation is added the obvious lack of intimacy : there just 50 inches between bed and bed. Family members can only enter twice a day , at 11 and 20 hours. There is only one toilet.
Another patient , ML , 66 , also spent the past week in the emergency department , although in his case he changed his room several times , as this newspaper reported his wife. In all cases , was in stays " with much heat and lack of space ," he told the Saturday, when the patient had been transferred to a room. "It was five nights, which came Monday through Saturday . There were many people in the box , between the sick and the family , and people still entering . They changed some room after one had to tie that escaped , "said the woman. " When we asked , they said : ' I am ashamed to come to tell you what you already know, there are no beds ."
At the hospital in La Paz say that this is a specific problem only happened last week. "He agreed that we had all beds occupied surgery, and as surgical patients are not derivable other hospitals have spent more time than usual in the ER ," said a spokeswoman . Typically , according to their data , is that a patient may be between 24 and 48 hours in emergency before getting a room on the ground . He added that last Friday , due to " the , situational specific situation " of those days , "there were 10 patients in the emergency department who had spent more than 48 hours " waiting bed. It is the only data that you provided. He did not specify how many cases , besides the two that found this newspaper, were three, four or five nights .
Emergency workers , both medical and nursing COUNTRY assured that , contrary to what management says , the problem of lack of beds is not punctual . " It is increasingly common for patients here have two, three or even four nights ," said one of them, who requested anonymity . " We, here in the ER , which we face with the patient and family , and we are hamstrung . We can not say anything more than what they tell us : there are no free beds , "he added . " These rooms have no windows and are often above capacity. There is little room , patients can not get up and have no privacy. "
Nurses in hospital emergency de La Paz reported a few days ago the status of a public service in writing that distributed the Madrid Association of Nursing. The group says that it can not ensure adequate health care due to cuts , inadequate infrastructure and the closure of beds in the center, which causes patients to accumulate in the ER , as a bottleneck , more days Advised .
